The Future Disaster Research Workforce: CONVERGE Training Modules for Ethical, Scientifically Rigorous Research

2024-02-02

Dr. Lori Peek

The National Science Foundation-funded CONVERGE facility is dedicated to advancing social science, engineering, and interdisciplinary hazards and disaster research. As core to that mission, the CONVERGE team develops trainings and other initiatives to support ethical, rigorous, convergence research that seeks to solve pressing social and environmental challenges. This presentation will provide an overview of the CONVERGE Training Modules—why they were developed, who accesses them, and how they have been evaluated. Participants are encouraged to visit the CONVERGE Training Modules in advance of the presentation: https://converge.colorado.edu/resources/training-modules/
